I did the "private viewing" of the 2020 Bronco "Family" Touted as "Come see the Bronco family, "you need a reservation, no walk ins"
So we Wife and Me) reserve an hours time slot that happened today..
This is going to be good ...I thought....
We'll we get there, Tasca in Cranston RI, getting excited... Where's the trucks? Where's the party? Where's the toys? gifts? banners?..... Nothing.
Back of the lot is where they are ... The whole Bronco family? this is strange there are only 2 Broncos and a sport.
Both Broncos are 4-doors, Both Broncos are rag tops, and the Sport,... not going there.
Soooo, we have to sign in to this "party" It's 2 guys and a woman in T-shirts..
No "presentation, no scripted "show" You get to "walk around"
It's time for questions... I ask:
Any brochures-spec sheets? .."nope"
What are you getting for mileage in the Sasquatch?.. "Can't tell you".
Come on, turn on the truck, it's in the computer... "I erased it"
What's the warranty? "Standard Ford I Guess"
What color is this? "I think Anti Matter"
Wealth of knowledge.
Can you fire it up? "nope"
Where's a 2-Door, "they didn't give us one"
How about a hard top? "nope don't have one"
I guess I was expecting a small private party,
What are the current delays? Anyone who ordered a hard top"
Really, I heard it was also the manual transmission... He says to me, "where'd you hear that?" I replied Internet and Ford E-mail
He looked puzzled....
Any way, "any t-shirts? hats? hoodies? Nope.
Any Water bottles? Pens flashlights? Nope.
Banners? flags? bumper stickers???? nope.
They did give you a sticker that said "I've checked in" and a 15 cent carabiner with "BRONCO" printed on it.
I'm guessing the Marketing manager of this fiasco MUST be a child of a Ford Exec. Bad showing, Impressive Static Model.
She did show us (because we asked) the removing of a door, in 30 seconds it was off, Very Cool!
